Paradise Lost | Greg talks about novel writing techniques, harsh vocals and the new artwork

"Founded in 1988 in Halifax, West Yorkshire, the band are not only known as one of the most distinctive acts in metal – their music defined the gothic subgenre and raised doom metal to a new level – they are also considered pioneers of an entire musical generation. Never ones to hesitate to explore undiscovered paths, PARADISE LOST have encompassed many genres during their career – from their death metal beginnings to the more mainstream electronic dark-pop album »Host«, electronic influences on »Symbol Of Life« alongside majestic gothic moments. Vocalist Nick Holmes, guitarists Greg Mackintosh and Aaron Aedy, along with bassist Steve Edmondson have never ceased to follow their own vision."

Ben talked to Greg Makintosh about the writing technique he used on Medusa, the prominence of harsh vocals and the retro artwork.

Aired 3rd August 2017.
